We need M3U support

Postby Redondo.Boony » 03 Feb 2015 22:07

Hello

Great to have VLC on WIndows Phone. Now I can watch Streams from my Dreambox.
What would be great is if you could add File Extension support for ".m3u"-Files...

This is a sample file:
#EXTM3U
#EXTVLCOPT--http-reconnect=true
http://home.server.com:8001/1:0:19:234F ... 01F2:0:0:0:
It's rather easy to implement it:

Code: Select all

<Extensions> <FileTypeAssociation Name="M3U file" TaskID="_default" NavUriFragment="fileToken=%s"> <Logos> <Logo Size="small" IsRelative="true">Assets/sdk-small-33x33.png</Logo> <Logo Size="medium" IsRelative="true">Assets/sdk-medium-69x69.png</Logo> <Logo Size="large" IsRelative="true">Assets/sdk-large-176x176.png</Logo> </Logos> <SupportedFileTypes> <FileType ContentType="application/sdk">.m3u</FileType> </SupportedFileTypes> </FileTypeAssociation> </Extensions>
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/librar ... .105).aspx

Which is then parsing the m3u-file to Stream it... that would be greeeeeeat!

Thanks for considering!

There are other means to stream E2 devices (dreambox, VU+ etc..)
